How do you sign school in American language?

The sign for "school" in American Sign Language (ASL) is a combination of two signs:

1. "S" handshape: This is the same handshape used for the letter "S" in the alphabet.

2. "House" sign: This sign is made with a "C" handshape, palm facing inward, and is moved downwards as if drawing a roof.

To sign "school" you do the following:

1. Start with the "S" handshape, palm facing outward.

2. Move the "S" handshape to the "C" handshape, palm facing inward, as you move it downwards in a "house" motion.

3. Finish with the "house" sign.

Here are some tips for signing "school":

* The movement should be smooth and fluid.

* The "house" sign should be clearly defined.

* You can add a facial expression to emphasize the meaning of the sign.

You can practice signing "school" by watching ASL videos online or by taking a sign language class.
